Feeling overwhelmed?
Weighed down?
Caught in a conflict?
Or have you been concerned for someone you love?
Anxiety, depression, relationship troubles, anger, even thoughts of suicide — these are very real battles that affect our minds, our hearts, and our lives. And yet, God has a lot to say about these issues. He cares deeply about our emotional well-being and mental health.
That’s why we’re offering a series of discussions at Wauseon Community Church, starting October 13. Along with the help of a licensed mental health therapist, let’s explore a practical, faith-based perspective on how to heal and find hope.
No matter what you’re going through, you or your loved-one, you are not alone. God sees you. And there is hope. I want to invite you to join us for this important series. This will be life-changing.

From childhood prayers to the complexities of praying for our enemies, this video dives into the profound teachings of Jesus on prayer. Discover the surprising depth of how Jesus’ teaching on how to pray challenges us to love and pray for those who oppose us.

Timing is Everything
Have you ever put something in the oven and forgotten about it? Timing is everything, whether in the kitchen or in life. In Matthew 9, Jesus compares spiritual growth to a harvest, emphasizing the importance of the right moment. How do we recognize the spiritual harvest around us? What happens if we miss the right timing? Jesus’ teachings challenge us to see beyond the obvious and to act with mercy and grace. Discover how this relates to your life and the lives of those around you in this video.
God’s Plan Interrupted: How Jesus Responded
What happens when a system designed to bring people closer to God gets in the way of that very purpose? Abraham’s descendants were chosen to bless the world, yet by the time Jesus arrives at the Temple, things have gone terribly wrong. The leaders are missing the point, and it’s blocking the mission God set into motion thousands of years earlier. Jesus steps in, but not quietly. Why does he react so strongly? What were the people doing that made Jesus so angry? And how does this story challenge us in the Church today to live out God’s mission? Watch to find out what Jesus did, why it matters, and how you can be part of God’s plan today.
The Key to Overcoming Temptation
How does temptation sneak up on us in seemingly innocent ways? What spiritual danger does it bring? Dr. Baney takes a close look at how our enemy, Satan, uses deception to lead us into sin, and how Jesus’ teachings equip us to stand firm against the temptations that impact our daily lives. Watch as Pastor Steve reveals how we can resist the lure of temptation by paying attention and praying with a willing spirit.
When You Feel Like Giving Up
Are you stuck in a situation that seems unchangeable? Have you ever given up praying for something after months or years of seeing no results? This message explores why—whether in relationships, finances, or even prayer—and how to find a breakthrough. Using Jesus’ teachings from Luke 11, Dr. Steve Baney challenges us to ask, seek, and knock with “shameless audacity.” What are you asking God for that still feels unanswered? Don’t give up yet—there’s more to discover about how God responds.
Why Isn’t God Answering?
Do you ever wonder why some prayers go unanswered? What happens when we’ve prayed with all our heart, yet our situation remains the same? Maybe you’re still waiting for healing, reconciliation, or provision. In this message, we explore why some prayers seem to linger in silence. Discover what Jesus says about it.

God’s Deliberate Plan Series
Why does the church do the things it does? It didn’t begin with a human idea or committee. Jesus established the church and established a goal, a plan we can use to evaluate our success. Are we getting it right? Why do some churches grow while others close their doors for good? Discover the powerful moment when Jesus left the earth, but not without a promise – a gift that transformed the disciples, filling them with passion and enabling them to spread the message of Jesus to every nation. 🌟 #GodsDeliberatePlan #DisciplesJourney #JesusMission #HolySpiritPower #Acts237 #CoMission #SpreadTheWord #DiscipleshipAdventure #PassionForMission #WitnessesForChrist
